Part of the DBH seal line, the 1386 is a radial oil seal built to design A: a single lip with a spring. It sits in a housing bore of 70 mm and takes up 16 mm of height, keeping lubricant where it belongs and holding dust, water and particles out of the assembly. Because it shields bearings and rotating shafts from contamination, it is treated as a wear item and replaced during scheduled maintenance. MR Industrial Accessories supplies it within its seals and oil seals range for industrial upkeep.

Reading the code helps when you order. The 1386 number places the seal inside the DBH line, while the 70x16 figures describe the bore it presses into: housing 70 mm, height 16 mm. Design A means one lip backed by a spring, a geometry intended for rotating shafts that run with oil or grease present. Confirm these three values against your equipment before requesting a quote, since a seal that is too tall or too narrow will not seat correctly.

You will find seals of this type in gear reducers, centrifugal pumps, electric motors and compressors, as well as in power transmission assemblies and agricultural machinery. Anywhere a shaft turns inside a housing and the lubricant has to stay separated from the surrounding environment, a radial seal is doing that job. The 70 mm bore with 16 mm height combination turns up often in medium-sized units, which makes the 1386 a frequent request.

Installation decides how long the seal lasts. Lubricate the lip before pressing it in, keep the housing clean and free of ridges, and check the shaft for burrs or a sharp chamfer that could cut the lip as it slides on. Design A with a spring suits moderate speeds and low pressures. If the shaft surface is already worn, an additional lip may be the better choice, so tell us about the condition of the shaft when you write.

If the 1386 is not the exact match, or you need a different size, send the code or your equipment dimensions: shaft diameter, housing diameter and height. With those figures the team searches the DBH line and the other brands we carry for a compatible part. We can also advise when the original seal has a special geometry, such as a double lip or an integrated dust guard.

Quotes are handled by WhatsApp or email. Send the code 1386 along with the quantity you need, and the team replies promptly, suggesting equivalents when the part does not line up exactly with your application. The same channel works for questions about other seals, bearings or transmission supplies.
